2014 Japan Open

[Barb]

Lipnitskaya has no choice from the beginning. HE decided everything. That's the conclusion.

He won't care even if Lipnitskaya loses to Radionova. But she can lose to Miyahara and Murakami easily in Japan. That's not pleasing for him.

NMURA, I truly don't mean any offence, but this is strange even by your standards.

 

[Trewyn]

Anyone know the schedule? Thanks!

 

[koatcue]

Will there be any link?

Japanese ladies are in very good shape.
Murakami "I'm training with much confidence now. Doing everything as if this is the last (season). Very positive."
Miyahara "I'm in very good form. Want to keep the condition all through the year and medal at nationals."

Kozuka uses a vocal music by Andrea Bocelli (not specified).

I think they made a wise decision to withdraw Lipnitakaya.

It's his new LP, Io Ci Saro.

Does anyone know if there will be a live stream for this? If I've done my calculations correct this should be happening 8:30pm my time! (California)

No I don't think there will be live stream, but TV Tokyo will on air it 16:00-18:25. There is another special program called "Figure Japan Restart" 13:00-13:30 on local TV in Kanto area.

When does this start?

 

[unico]

Very much looking forward to seeing the condition of Fernandez, Kozuka, and Chan and their choreography after a lack-luster season for Kozuka last year I really want him to do well

I think it airs at midnight in California. Per pandaatlarge's reply, TV Tokyo is airing it at 4pm Japan Time. I live on the East Coast so it airs at 3am my time, and because you're 3 hours behind us, it would be midnight for you.

 

[samson]

Great thanks! I guess it makes sense not to air it live since it's so early in Japan. Anyone know where we can find a stream for it online?

Generally they upload videos on YT pretty quickly. I've never seen anyone offer a live stream, but hey that might change!

 

[samson]

hahah alright thanks! I'm so anxious to see it this year! Also do we know a skating order? If I can help it I'd like to watch the skates in the order they happen. I've tried navigating the Japan Open site, but alas I am helpless.

some say Javi had 3S+3T instead, so I guess his combo was nullified?
